Form of work
SalaryThe post holder will work with the PRE-ACT Co-ordinator, partners and other key stakeholders to ensure the effective delivery of the PRE-ACT project, over a period of five years. The main focus of the role is to manage the PRE-ACT Consortium comprising 8 European partners in order to achieve the deliverables and milestones set according to the necessary timeframes and budget. It is a multi-disciplinary research project that includes an international, multi-centre, clinical trial collecting pre-treatment blood samples and extensive, longitudinal data from cancer patients receiving potentially curative radiotherapy for breast cancer. PRE-ACT further aims to develop validated clinical models incorporating biomarker data to identify before treatment those cancer patients who are at risk of developing long-term side-effects from radiotherapy.
Key to this stimulating yet challenging role will be the development of detailed project plans, the management and coordination of complex interdisciplinary tasks, the coordination of multiple stakeholders across many disciplines and sectors (including clinicians, academics, patients, health informaticians) and the ability to collaborate with, and when necessary influence, senior academics. Skill and dexterity in this role are essential to ensure the PRE-ACT project is delivered on time, to scope and with high impact.
